# Monarchs of Austenasia

[![Picture of Emperor Terry I, the first Emperor of Austenasia.](https://austenasia.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/untitled.png)](https://austenasia.org/monarchy/untitled/)Terry I was the nation’s first Emperor, one of the family of four who declared their house in Carshalton independent to form the Empire of Austenasia on 20 September 2008.

Although unrelated to the Imperial Family, he had been given a place in the Line of Succession by Parliament (in what had been intended to be a purely nominal honour). When his friend Crown Prince Jonathan refused to inherit the Throne so as to remain Prime Minister, the choice fell to Esmond as second in line, who accepted.

[![Picture of Emperor Declan I](https://austenasia.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/d-iiiv-ri2.jpg)](https://austenasia.org/monarchy/d-iiiv-ri2/)Declan I was declared joint Emperor by Parliament on 19 December 2010, after forces loyal to him took control of the Austenasian vassal states in Carshalton in opposition to Esmond III. He became sole Emperor in September 2011, and reigned until his abdication in January 2013.

[![Jonathan I](https://austenasia.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/2018-8.jpg)](https://austenasia.org/monarchy/2018-8/)Jonathan I, the son of Terry I, ascended to the Throne on 20 January 2013 upon the abdication of Declan I. The official Founder of the country and Prime Minister to all three of his predecessors, Emperor Jonathan I would reign upon taking the Throne for longer than any other Austenasian Monarch before or since.
